[...] Marc Lamont Hill wrote an interesting post today on Leave Will Smith AloneHere’s a quick excerptFor the past few days, Will Smith has been under fire by the media and Jewish Defense League for his comments to a Scottish newspaper: Even Hitler didn’t wake up going, ‘let me do the most evil thing I can do today. … [...]

I agree also. I believe the ADL are a little to sensitive. I think what is funny is that Jews were not the only people under fire with the Holocaust. I think what makes the situation even more interesting is that they attack him and he did not say anything about the Holocaust. He talked about a man and his views and sentiments. I think on a larger scale that Will is right, the man(Hitler) was a little twisted

Hey Doc, can you give me a late Christmas gift and repost your 10 steps to writing. I’ve been searching but I can’t find it on the blog anymore.

The Jewish Defense League is not the Anti-Defamation League. They are two separate organizations. The JDL is on the SPLC’s list of watched hate groups, and the ADL has released a statement saying it’s clear that Will Smith’s remarks were not meant as any sort of praise for Hitler.

There was nothing offensive about that statement, he was absolutely right. At no point did he say that Hitler did anything right, this is ridiculous.

But don’t let Ken Timmerman or Rush Limbaugh choose what is best for black people.

But it is okay for Marc Hill to tell Jewish people what they should or shouldn’t take offense to?

I don’t think he did that. I’m pretty sure he said he disagreed with the offensive nature of the comments. I’m not sure what your arguing here John as I’m pretty sure you don’t find the comments offensive either. They should be more offended that the Bush family fortune was made from Prescott Bush being Hitler’s banker.

I taught middle school, and I’ve seen this problem before. I believe John, the Jewish Defense League, and a lot of other Americans lack the basic skill of reading comprehension. They can read a paragraph, but can’t interpret what was written. They can’t identify the author’s viewpoint, find the main idea or draw logical conclusions. When people lack these skills, most of what you write will not get through to them in the proper sequence. Unless they are willing to work on getting better, they will continue to take things out of context and run with them.

Again, I don’t think Will Smith’s comments are about Hitler. Hitler is just a symbol of evil. The comments are about evil and the nature of evil. What’s wrong with trying to understand?
